The Canadian Union of Skilled Workers (CUSW) is a skilled trades union based in Canada. It was founded in February 1999 as a breakaway of the former Local 1788 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, which then represented Toronto employees of Ontario Hydro.^[1] It does not appear to be affiliated with the Canadian Labour Congress^[2] or any other broader organization.
